The lyrics

If you were a cowboy I would trail you,

if you were a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor,

if you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore,

if you were a river I would swim you,

if you were a house I would live in you all my days,

if you were a preacher I'd begin to change my ways,

sometimes I believe in fate

but the chances we create,

lways seem to ring more true,

you took a chance on loving me,

I took a chance on loving you

if I was in jail I know you'd spring me,

if I were a telephone you'd ring me all day long,

if I was in pain I know you'd sing me soothing songs,

sometimes I believe in fate

but the chances we create,

always seem to ring more true,

you took a chance on loving me,

I took a chance on loving you

if I was hungry you would feed me,

if I was in darkness you would lead me to the light,

if I was a book I know you'd read me every night,

If you were a cowboy I would trail you,

if you were a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor,

if you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore,

if you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore
